Niacinamide

Niacinamide, also known as nicotinamide, is a form of Vitamin B3 that is water-soluble, which means that it is not stored in the body and is important to replenish. Among its many benefits, it reverses and prevents signs of skin ageing, brightens and smooths skin, calms inflammation and redness, reduces hyperpigmentation, decreases the appearance of pores, and hydrates and supports the skin barrier.

Centella Asiatica Extract

Centella asiatica extract is an effective ingredient not only for antiaging but also for improving skin hydration. It is used to complement the treatment of dry and sensitive skin. Reduces skin irritation by repairing the skin barrier function. Its constituents help decrease redness, inflamation and relieve itchy skin due to their soothing and healing properties.

Zinc Oxide

Zinc oxide is considered one of the best sunscreen ingredients we have access to. Not only does it block both UVA and UVB rays – which are responsible for causing burns, skin damage, and skin cancer — but it's completely photostable and resistant to water.

Solanum Lycopersicum Fruit Extract

Purifying to the skin, Tomato Extract helps balance the pH of the skin, acts as a lightening agent and regulates sebum. Tomato contains Lycopene, a powerful antioxidant that helps prevent collagen deterioration. This antioxidant also works to scavenge free radicals.

Vitamin E Acetate

Tocopheryl acetate is a form of vitamin E, an antioxidant, which helps fight free radical damage and promote skin healing to diminish signs of aging. It also provides moisture and strengthens skin’s protective barrier to prevent moisture loss.

Citric Acid

Citric Acid has protective antioxidant, and corrective antiaging effects helping to reverse visible signs of photodamage. Citric Acid works by exfoliating the upper layer of dead skin cells to help clean pores, even skin tone and soften and smooth the skin.

FAQs

Here are 10 reasons to make you wanna wear SPF everyday!

1. There’s a difference between tanning and sunburning. While tanning is cool, sunburning is a hell no and as the name suggests, it literally burns your skin cells and damages them permanently. Wear your SPF everyday, no matter the season.
2. We usually hear people say, “but I don’t go out as much, I am indoors all day, I don’t wear sunscreen indoors”. This is a big red flag!!! Even if you are indoors, the UV light finds its way through the windows to penetrate in your skin to damage it. Even if you are indoors, it is irrefutable that you wear SPF, every single day, even if it is a cloudy day.
3. Unprotected exposure to sun can have long-lasting effects on your skin that are very difficult to fix.
4. No sunscreen = leading cause of skin damage, photoaging, DNA damage, hyperpigmentation, dark spots, risk of cancer, and sunburn.
5. The skincare foundation claims that applying sunscreen everyday reduces your chances of developing the deadliest skin cancer (squamous cell carcinoma) by 50%.
6. SPF also prevents early signs of aging, fine lines and wrinkles so that you have young and healthy skin by the time you’re old.
7. It is common for Indian skin to develop pigmentation and hyperpigmentation because of the reactive melanin especially in the India skin. When parts of skin become darker inconsistently and discolors, this means that your skin is affected because of unprotective sun exposure causing hyperpigmentation.
8. SPF = investment for your skin. You will see the ROI, which will be too good for you to discontinue.
9. Sunlight also causes DNA damage ultimately leading to inflammation, accelerated aging, and tumor development.
10. Sunscreen prevents skin discoloration, sun-spots, dark spots, and pigmentation which can stay on your skin permanently.
There’s no doubt – sunscreen protects your skin!

But did you know that Skinvest’s sunscreen not only protects your skin but also prevents and reduces acne?
A lot of sunscreens clog pores, cause breakouts, have cancer causing ingredients, are sticky, have white cast and feel super uneasy. This is the reason why people fail to apply the sunscreen, forget about re-applying it. SPF only works the best and prevents damage on your skin if you keep re-applying it. Sunny side up offers invisible and super lightweight shield that is fast absorbing which makes re-application easy.

Higher SPF = More protection

Most people think that sunscreen with an SPF of 100 provides more than triple the sun protection of an SPF 30. In reality, sunscreen with an SPF of 30 will block 97 percent of the sun’s rays. Higher SPFs, while more expensive, will block only 1 to 2 percent more, and no sunscreen can block 100 percent. The SPF also has no impact on the length of time sunscreen will protect you; the same duration applies for both low- and high-SPFs: typically two hours or less.

Wearing sunscreen blocks Vitamin D

Even if you apply sunscreen well, it still allows 2 to 3 percent of the sun’s UVB to reach your skin, and your body only needs a little to produce vitamin D. Studies have never found that everyday sunscreen use leads to vitamin D insufficiency.

My makeup has SPF, that’s all I need

Using a foundation with at least an SPF 30 on your face will give some sun protection, but it doesn’t work as well as traditional sunscreen.

Dark skin does not need SPF

Dark-colored skin will not burn as easily as light-colored skin, but the sun can still lead to skin damage and burns with excessive exposure.

Sunlight does not penetrate through windows

While UVB rays are blocked by glass, UVA rays, which may increase your risk of skin cancer.

One application of SPF lasts all day

Many people think that sunscreen will last all day after just one application. In reality, sunscreen breaks down in the light and loses its effectiveness over a short period of time.

You can not tan while wearing sunscreen

It is still possible to get a tan while using sunscreen, even when someone applies it multiple times throughout the day. A tan is the body’s natural protective response to UV exposure.

Did you know that Skinvest’s sunny side up also contains niacinamide? Niacinamide is a superstar skincare ingredient with the following benefits:
1. Minimizes redness and inflammation
2. Minimizes pore appearance
3. Regulates and stabilizes oil production
4. Treats hyperpigmentation
5. Protects against sun damage
6. Minimizes fine lines and wrinkles
7. Treats acne
8. Prevents skin cancers like Melanoma
9. Promotes production of ceramides and elastin

Yes, this is a mineral sunscreen. Chemical and mineral sunscreens shield your skin from the harmful effects of the sun’s UV rays in very different ways. Mineral sunscreen with zinc oxide are small particles that sit on the skin’s surface and physically prevent UV rays from penetrating the skin. Chemical sunscreens, on the other hand, allow UV light into the skin. Once the light is absorbed into the skin, the chemicals in the sunscreen create a chemical reaction in which UV light is converted to heat, and the heat dissipates from the skin. Mineral sunscreens are also ideal for children, people with sensitive skin, and people with melasma. And unlike chemical sunscreens, which typically take 20 to 30 minutes to absorb into the skin, mineral sunscreens offer immediate protection — no waiting needed. Mineral sunscreens can also be applied on top of makeup and other skin-care products.
